Having said that, you really don't need to see "Court Martial" to appreciate TCOTCC. All you need to know is that Cogley's a 23rd-century lawyer.

In fact, I daresay that familiarity with Perry Mason is more useful for appreciating TCOTCC than a familiarity with "Court-martial."

This was a fun story, too - as I recall, it also established that

Spoiler: The Trial of James T. Kirk

Areel Shaw and Sam Cogley eventually got married,

which I thought was a great touch.

And if memory serves, this storyline also included a great blooper - they inadvertently referred to Cogley as "Cogsley" for at least an issue or two before realizing their mistake. Don't know if the TPB corrects this error or not...
